Ash Wednesday is one of the most important holy days in the Liturgical Calendar of the Church. Ash Wednesday opens Lent, a season of fasting and prayer.
It is the day when many Christians Mark as the first of Lent, the time of reflection and penitence leading up to Easter Sunday. The clergy worldwide dispense ashes, usually made by burning the palm fronds distributed on last year’s Palm Sunday. They make the sign of the Cross on the bowed foreheads before them. As they dispense the ashes, the pastor or priest reminds each Christian: “For dust you are and to dust you shall return” (Genesis 3:19).
